Give minmatar dampening instead of nova knife damage; I cut heavys just fine with ishys and prof 5.
Can't all the scouts be invisible to everyone with enough dampening mods now? In the ewar department they are lacking naturally but they have that a useful hacking bonus, are the fastest suit, and are the only suit that gets a damage bonus to a weapon. I don't run min scout though so i can't speak from experience and you may be right. Seems like they are the truest assassin scout since they can take out even proto sentinels quickly with everything maxed.
I want to be invisible to scouts im not to concerned with heavys or mediums, and hack speed is what makes the min scout not knive bonus. Ishukons lvl 5 prof will one charge just about any medium suit or none proto heavy. We need the dampening to make knives more effective.
We don't need more dampening. For details, see below.
And speak for yourself about knifing. That is my favorite minja bonus, and a lot of others too. And since charlie, I have seen people skilling into them BECAUSE of the knife bonus, not hacking.
If you took the knifing bonus, Minjas would become bland. Gallente, with their superior low slot numbers, would be able to be more flexible and out minja a minja.

Wrong if I have three complex dampeners and proto cloak a full speced ammar scout with complex enhancers can still see me, Im like .5 away from falling under there scan threshhold.
YOU are the wrong one.
Here is the new scout EWAR scanning models.
As you can see on the sheet, the Amarr scout scans at 17.8, which due to rounding, makes it 18 dB.
You can also see that with 3 complex damps, the minmatar get down to 15.9 dB, which rounds to 16 dB, and easily beats the Amarr scans.
Also, with 2 complex damps, you would be at 18.5, and with a proto cloak, you would get down to 16.65 dB, rounding to 17 dB. Again beating the Amarr scout.
Lastly, you will see that the Gal Logi with a Focused Scanner can scan at 15 dB. With 3 complex damps, and a proto cloak, a Minja can get down to 14.3 dB, rounded down to 14 dB, and beat those scans.
tl;dr
Minjas are capable of beating all scans!Please do your research and trust when lifelong Minjas are telling you that more dampening isn't necessary.
